I’m just waiting for Michigan to dump a big snowy winter on us, as its been pretty mild so far (I know, I’m jinxing it). But John did get a big snowblower for Christmas so hopefully it means we won’t get any snow, lol! Since I mostly work from home now I find myself gravitating to my cozy sweaters and ALL the tea to keep me warm. Here are a few of my favorite things this season:
Laneige Lip Sleeping Mask ($20)
This stuff is pure gold for chapped lips. I have a little sample pot on my nightstand right now and will be buying a full-sized one as soon as I’m out. It works magic overnight!
Faux Fur Infinity Scarf ($44.99)
Every year Loft comes out with a new version of this scarf and every year I am here for it. I wear my furry Loft scarf every day and I LOVE it! I should just start buying them as gifts because they are the best!
Taste of Tea
Michigan has a new tea store, Taste of Tea, which I stumbled across during my Black Friday shopping extravaganza. I picked up some of their Dark Chocolate Truffle Tea and I am IN LOVE. I have one of those big Friends style coffee mugs and I just drink it all! If you’re in Michigan, the stores are at Partridge Creek and Twelve Oaks Mall. If you’re not local, you can order the teas online.
Pocket Sweater Duster ($59.99)
I am living the cardigan life people! I am wearing the cardigan from last year’s list as I write this. One thing a cardigan needs is pockets! I can drop my phone in a pocket and run up and down the stairs doing errands while listening to my podcasts…it’s really the little things that get me fired up. When I saw this one I got excited because it’s even longer than the one I have now AND the color is so pretty!
Emma Faux-Fur Cuff Wedge Boot ($59.97)
So my friends and I used to go to this winter beer festival every February and the only requirement was that you had to wear furry boots (a.k.a. boots with the fur). Unfortunately, we don’t do this trip anymore, but I couldn’t pass up these boots which would have been perfect for that outing!
Chocolate Lava Cake Candle ($12.25)
If you want your home to smell like chocolate cake, then this is the candle for you. I picked this scent up on Black Friday and put it out once I finished up my holiday scents. Between that and my tea I am enjoying all the chocolate with none of the guilt!
Shimmer Sweater Dress ($79.99)
Another Black Friday purchase that I love! This is the answer to what to wear to a party or a night out in the dead of winter.
Cucumber De-Tox™ Hydra-Gel Eye Patches ($52)
I use these a few days a week and LOVE them. It is really like having a luxurious spa treatment while you’re running around getting ready for the day. They have all different kinds too so I can’t wait to try others once I run out.
Bow Sweater ($28)
This keeps getting served to me in advertising and I LOVE it! It’s not a color I normally wear, but I think I could pair a really bright lip with it and wear my hair up.
Huggie Hoop Earrings ($24.50)
I love the look of these, I guess you can say my style is LOFT chic, because I am into everything they put out.
Oblio Wireless Charging Station with Built-In UV Sanitizer ($80)
The person that created this is a genius…and about to make a whole lotta cash! I want one of these SO bad – it would be perfect on my nightstand and having your phone sanitized every night would probably save you a few bugs throughout the winter.
CND Bellini and After Hours
I’m loving the mixed metals look, so I’m picking both of these shades for 2020!
Collared Mixed Media Sweater ($44.99)
This reminds me of a sweater I used to have back in the day. I loved the layered look, but hate layering and this is the best of both worlds!
What’s keeping you warm this winter?
